Hi Mike,
The under hammer type firearms were never were never very popular here in the US. The caps had a tendency to fall off when the hammer was cocked.
A company named "Green" produced an under hammer rifle that was a bolt action rifle in, I believe a .58 cal. Sold a few to the US Government, but it was never very popular. You maybe able to do a Google search for these arms?
The few examples of the civilian models I have seen use the trigger guard as a hammer mainspring..
There is also a single action variation where the hammer is either in the side, or on top of the barrel. These are often referred to as "Mule Ear" rifles and pistols.
Again, they were more of a novelty than being very common here in the US.
I hope this offers some help?
My best,
Blair
